Flashback

RING! RING! RING!

"H-hello?"

"Hello? Is this umm… Sam Evans?"

"Yeah… who is this? Why are you calling me so early?"

"Mr. Evans, my name is Monica… I… umm… I work for umm…"

"Who? Who do you work for?"

"Mercedes Jones. She's… I'm her assistant."

"Mercy? Is she okay? Is something wrong?"

"No, no… I really shouldn't be doing this..."

"Doing what? Why did you call me?"

"Look, do you still have feelings for her? Is she still your one?"

"W-what? I don't know you to answer that quest-"

"Do you? Because if you do, you need to tell her and soon!"

"What are you saying?"

"She's about to make the biggest mistake of her life and judging on how she used to talk about you and how she still talks about you when she's drunk… you were, no, you are her one. So do you Mr. Evans? Do you still love her?"

Sam froze. He wasn't able to form words… why was asking him this? Why was she being so hush hush about the whole thing? Why wasn't Mercedes calling him?

"Mr. Evans? Are you still there?"

"Yes, yes. I'm still here. She talks about me?" Sam asked feeling a small tingle in his gut. He sat up on his bed and let out the yawn he apparently had been holding in since he was woken up by his loud phone.

"Yes… she used to a lot but it would make her sad so she stopped until she got drunk. She wouldn't get sad though just happy drunk, going on and on about "her Sammy." I decided to record her in her drunken state and show her how happy she was talking about you but… it back fired and she got extremely mad at me and made me delete it… well she asked me to at least.I got your number from her phone a while ago and had every intentions of contacting you but with her crazy life and all the demands on her, I was too busy to stop and call you. I just know now I can't put it off any longer, she needs you… she needs someone good with her and I'm more than sure she'll probably fire me for this but I still have the video. I'm going to send it to you and if by some chance you feel the same… give me a call at 5:30. Also, I'm really sorry to have called you this early but Cedes likes to watch the sunrise. I'm sure you already know that though. I gotta go. Goodbye Mr. Evans."

"Goodbye" Sam said back and before the line went dead he heard her for all of half a second but it was his Mercy.

BING! His phone buzzed and he saw the new message from Monica.

Please watch this alone- Monica R.

Sam opened the attachment and his breathing hitched in the back of his throat hearing her giggle. She looked stunning her sweet face was beaming as she sang into a half empty bottle of wine. Her beautiful features made him smile, those big doe eyes were slighly glossy but still lively, her hair was flowing around her shoulders in loose curls, she didn't have on any make up nor did she need it. She was smiling and that was all the make-up she needed, he felt his self getting choked up at the sight of her then she started talking…

"You know he was the only one I ever loved. He was my first real true love… maybe my only honestly. I seriously love everything about him. [GIGGLES] One time he got a dog and he was too adorable but he had to go… he ate my weave and shoes and we didn't have enough time for him. Well we probably would have but I didn't really give him the chance to find out. I miss that dog. I miss my Sammy, those big sweet lips of his and that goofy smile and his impressions! He made me laugh so easily and he knew how to kiss me. Good Lord, he knew how to use those luscious lips of his so well and knew when I needed them. He knew everything! I love him you know but I love my Sammy more deeply. It's a different kind of love… a forever kind of love. I should've kept better contact with him, I have his number still and I thought about calling… but who am I to ruin his life?"

Video Ends

Sam sat frozen for a while. She still loved him… he still had a chance but who else was she talking about in the video? He wanted to call Monica back but decided against and sent her a message in stead.

Yes, I do.- SE

Huh?- M.R.

I love her, always have.

REALLY! Great! This is so perfect! OMG! I have to get her to Lima… do you trust me?

I guess I really don't have a choice but to trust you.

Good! We have less than six months to make this happen! I'll call you tomorrow at 5:30 okay?

Why is there a time crunch? Who else was she talking about in the video?

Trust me when I say this, she was talking about the mistake she's making.

Okay. 5:30 tomorrow?

Yep! Sam… you need to be ready to fight.

I didn't expect anything less.

I don't mean for her. I mean him.

Who?

Sam waited for a response but never got one that day. He figured she had gotten busy and couldn't respond. He went about his day normally and wished it was tomorrow already. When 5:30 rolled around the next day he could barely contain his nerves, he made sure his phone was charged and waited for her call. He waited for three hours before finally giving into his urge to text Monica.

Hey… just checking to see if we're still on for our chat? SE

…

Sam saw the bubble pop ut for a moment before it disappeared. He waited a while longer before it a night, he would read any messages if there were any in the morning.

The Next Day

Sam rolled over in his bed toward his night stand to grab his phone and saw that he had a missed call from Monica and two messages as well. He thought about calling her but chose to read the messages first.

Message 1

Sam! I'm so sorry I missed our call time. I'm afraid things have changed… here's the run down.

1. She loves you… a lot! (Remember this for #2)

2. She got engaged last night.

3.I thought he was going to wait until her album was complete, which is why I said less than six months previously.

4. HE'S HORRIBLE

5. Please, please, please don't think you don't have a chance. That video is only three weeks old!

Lastly, I can't be sure but I convinced her to go home to Lima… I just don't know when.

Message 2

Mercedes… she's crying. I promise you have a shot… it's just him.

Sam threw his phone and slammed his face into his hands, he felt so defeated and so overwhelmed. He knew he should've used that ticket he bought months ago to surprise her but he couldn't bring his self to disrupt her life on a whim. How could she be engage? Why was Monica so worried about this guy she was dating? He knew Mercedes well enough to know that she wouldn't have said yes hastily. He needed to settle one thing before he agreed to inject his self back into her life. He didn't want to text so he took the risk and called. He hoped like hell she answered and could talk in private.

"Sam?"

"Hello? Sam?"

"Mercy?"

"Yes… Sam is that you?"

"It's me Mercy."

"Oh my… how are you? How have you been? It's been so long bab-… it's been a long time."

"I'm doing good. I've been doing fine… just school you know? Yes… it's been too long. How are you? How's it going in L.A.?" He said setting the scene to see if she mentioned her fiance to him. He would know if he still had a shot or if she was serious about whoever this guy was that she agreed to marry.

"Great! I got my Grammy! I'm working on my next album actually. L.A. is busy, busy, busy but it's starting to fell like home. How's Lima? How do you like teaching?"

"I know! I was so happy when you won, I even told my glee kids about it and we dedicated the week to your win! Lima's Lima haha… anything else keeping you busy?

"Wow! Really? That's so sweet Sam! Not really just studio and shows… I'm so sorry but I have to cut this short. I have to go get ready for this interview. It was so good hearing from you and talking to you Sammy. Hopefully we can do it again… soon.

"Hopefully. Bye gorgeous."

"Bye Sammy."

Sam waited for the line to die but it didn't not for a little while, he didn't want to be the one to hang up and he could tell she didn't either but she had no choice after another minute passed. He heard the click and put his phone down with a huge grin on his face. She didn't mention her engagement and she called him Sammy, he still had a shot and he was going to take it but first he needed to know why Monica was worried about her fiance and find out who the hell he was for that matter. He heard his phone buzz and saw he'd gotten a message from Monica.

WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?! WHY DID YOU CALL HER!

What? Nothing, I just talked to her.

CALL ME!

Sam sat there for a moment suddenly feeling bad for calling Mercedes without letting Monica know he needed to see for himself before calling her again. He took a deep breath and called Monica.

"Hell-"

"Don't you hello me! Listen!"

Sam went silent to see what it was he was supposed to be hearing.

"I don't..."

Then he heard it, the saddest sound he never wanted to hear again. He began shaking his head to stop him self from breaking down, he heard the loud sobs and knew it was Mercedes. She was crying loudly and he knew it was because of him.

"I-i, let me talk to her! I..."

"No! You just had to call her! I told you I would call you… I was so close to convincing her to fly out today but you couldn't wait a few more hours! She was looking forward to it… maybe. Look, you seriously screwed this up and now I have to put out a thousand and one fires to get her to calm down before her fiance gets back and starts to suspect something. I HOPE IT WAS WORTH IT!

CLICK

He wanted to shout that he just needed to know before ruining her life. He couldn't get the sound of Mercedes sobbing out of his head and decided to hit the gym to clear his mind and figure a way to make this better.

The Present

Sam had a busy day ahead of him, with him reintroducing duets to the New Directions and sectionals coming up he still needed to get the set list together and whip them into tip top shape to beat the competition. He loved his position as choir director and the occasional help for Coach Bieste on the football field during practices and game days. His life was exactly what he envisioned it would be after leaving New York. Well… not entirely what he envisioned, he was missing one thing. He was missing her, that sweet smile he used to wake up to and those sweet kisses he fell asleep to at night. Her dreams were too big for Lima, she was too bug for Lima and he was happy she was chasing her dreams in L.A. He just wished he fit somewhere in her dreams but he understood and appreciated their friendship if that's what he could call it. After she left they kept in touch until she got busy and the calls and text became fewer and far between until they stopped. He followed her career and bought her albums, he'd even watched her win her first Grammy. He couldn't have been more proud he remember shouting so loudly that he scared his dog. He sighed deeply at the thought of only being her friend for the rest of their lives. The conversation between him and her assistant popped back into his head, it had been over a month and whatever hope he had was almost gone. He shook the feeling off and walked into the choir room, freezing as soon as he entered. He saw his students speaking to a woman but wasn't who she was, she was curvy with shoulder length curls and her skin was deep brown but she wasn't Mercedes… he knew her body and this wasn't it.

"Sam Evans?" The woman asked and he immediately recognized the voice.

"Monica?" He asked to make sure his assumption was right.

"Yes! Normally, I would entertain the pleasantries but we have roughly 50 seconds before Cedes comes in here." She said moving towards him and pulling him away from the flock of students.

"She's here?" Sam asked feeling a sudden rush of excitement and nervousness.

"Yes! Now listen, one we don't know each other… I never called or texted you. We literally just met capeesh? Two, I told her that you needed help with sectionals. Three, her fiance is here… well not here but here. Four, so help me God if you make her cry again I. WILL. CUT. YOU. Got it?" She said in a hushed voice but very firmly. Sam couldn't help but smile at her, she reminded him a lot of Mercedes. He nodded and cleared his throat when he saw her entering the room. His eyes scanned her slowly and felt his chest tighten and his palms get sweaty. Damn… she looked even more beautiful than he remembered, the video he watch didn't do her justice. Their eyes met and his heart thumped so very hard that he was sure the whole class heard it. She was wearing dark colored jeans that hugged her hips wonderfully, she paired it with a red button down that was slightly unbuttoned enough to show the trim of her lace bra. Her hair was up in a messy bun with a few strands of loosely flowing around her face, she was barely wearing any make-up. She was down right stunning and they were both so lost in each other eyes that they didn't realize it until he heard one of his students.

"Mr. Evans, do you need a moment?"

"Umm… no..." Sam said breaking their gaze and turning to a room full of questioning eyes and smirks. He rolled his eyes and looked back at Mercedes then Monica who had the same look as his students. Monica nudged Mercedes and nodded towards Sam before giving her a look causing her to move closer to Sam.

"Hey Sammy." Mercedes said shooting Monica a stern look then looking back up at Sam smiling sweetly. Sam moved closer to her and smiled back before pulling her into a warm hug and stopped the groan that was threatening to escape his mouth. She smelled so damn good and felt amazing back in his arms. He heard Monica clear her throat before reluctantly pulling away.

"Hey Mercy." He finally said moving a hair out of her face letting his thumb gently caress her cheek. He saw her bite her lip and slowly moved away avoiding eye contact.

"Mr. Evans, I thought you were lying when you said you knew Mercedes Jones!" One student said breaking the silence.

"Nope! As you all can see, she's here and is going to help us with this weeks lesson and Sectionals. We're going to be working on duets this week, we did it when we were students and it help our group shape our set list and got us a win!" Sam said beaming.

"Did you two sing together?"

"Well… not during that assignment. We did however during our Michael Jackson week and if I do say so myself, we sounded pretty amazing." He said looking at Mercedes with a goofy grin.

"Will you sing something for us? Together?"

"That's up to her..." Sam said putting Mercedes in the hot seat. He saw the look she shot him but ignored it and chuckled. Monica pushed her towards Sam and smiled.

"She would love to sing for you guys!" Monica said quickly moving to one of the vacant seats with the students.

"Okay… just one song though!" She said laughing at the kids loud cheering. Sam smiled brightly and clapped his hands together in excitement.

"What you say… think you can handle a little Country?" He asked winking at her.

"I don't want to brag or anything but I can sing pretty much every genre, so let's do it." Sam smiled and whispered the song in her ear and she nodded as her approval.

"Okay guys we're going to be singing Meant to Be by Bebe Rexha and Florida Georgia Line" He said before they began to sing.

(Sam, Mercedes, together)

They both stood there staring deeply at each other moving closer and closer to each other before being jerked back to reality by a man clearing is throat making them both look at the door.

"Hey baby… am I interrupting something?"

So... what do you guys think? Who do you think she's engaged to? This was really fun to write and I have more coming. As for my other fanfics I will be uploading those too very soon! I wanted to make sure they were perfect for you guys! I hope you enjoyed this one and tell me what you think! Is Sam over stepping?
